Re: Sony 55hx823 4 Blinks

Even with back off soon as i reconnect the bl error cable it starts again
with the 4 blink cycle...

Have had the heatshield plated connect to the led driver board today.
And it runs fine too..

Anyway going to put the back on tomorrow and connect the bl signal to ground properly
its just taped to the chaisis at the momnet lol...

Quite a strange senario..

Update

Tv works fine
Is not showing any issues visually, no sign of any led being out or anything
So will be putting the back on and use as is...
Not the best conclusion but the tv works fine
had about 36 hours use now..

I still think a minor component is not quite right, either on the led driver or in the
path of the error circuit it self causing a false error code maybe... ?

It is possible to have the main board throw erroneous error codes for no reason. I have an 80 inch sharp LED TV that will not power up if its been unplugged I get the 1-1 code but if i bypass the code when I plug it in it never has a problem until I get some plugin so I know that one is definitely a main board problem

80 inches? holy cow, I bet the mainboard is pretty pricey.
